Condi Nasty
Why did it take so damned long to discover that like the rest of this regime, Ms. Rice is winging it.
Thanks in advance to
Petula Clark…When you’re pawn
And life is treating you wrongly,
You can always go Midtown
When they’ve got querries,
All the news and the fury
Seems to sap, I know, Midtown
Just hasten to the retail of couturiers in the city
Linger in the limo where all the silk is pretty
How can you schmooze?
The fights are much slighter there
You can forget all your duties,
forget all your wars and go
Midtown, New Yorkers’ll scrape when you’re
Midtown, they’ll make way for sure,
Midtown, everything’s waiting on you
(Midtown)
Don’t talk Iraq
And let lesser clowns question you
Make ‘em bow ‘n scrape midtown
Maybe you show
All the things that you know to
Prove they cannot doze Midtown
Just glisten in the starlight
with expensive Christian Dior
They’ll be begging with you, too,
but tell them it is over
Snappy again
Lights can lend an icier stare.
You can forget all your screw-ups,
forget all the snares and go
Midtown where only you are right,
Midtown, waiting on you tonight,
Midtown, you make Lebowski uptight
(Midtown Midtown)
Midtown
(Midtown)
You may find someone in-a-bind
to embarrass all your en’mies
A goof who is just like you
and needs a taste of blood too
String ‘em along
So, maybe you’ll win the dare.
You can forget all your hatreds,
forget all your years and go
Midtown, king’ll prostrate themselves,
Midtown, don’t give a damn no more,
Midtown, everything’s blamed on you
Midtown (Midtown) Midtown (Midtown)
Downtown (Midtown) Midtown (Midtown)
(repeat and fade out)
Washington Memo
With Rumsfeld Gone, Critics of War Look to Rice
By HELENE COOPER
Published: February 4, 2007
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 — For six years, first as national security adviser and then as secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice worked under the cover of a very effective shield: Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, who was the administration’s lightning rod for criticism over its handling of Iraq.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice at a Senate hearing on Jan. 11.
But in recent weeks, with Mr. Rumsfeld gone, Ms. Rice has faced increased, and somewhat unfamiliar, criticism. At a Senate hearing on Jan. 11, she confronted a wall of opposition from Republicans as well as Democrats. During hearings this week on Iraq, several of her predecessors were pointed in their disapproval of her job performance.
